[0028] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0029] In order to solve the problem of low working efficiency of manually looping a small elbow in the prior art, the present invention provides a loop docking device.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a ring docking device is provided, including a support frame 10, a positioning assembly 20 and a movable assembly 30; the positioning assembly 20 is arranged on the support frame 10, so as to respectively position a plurality of parts 1 to be ringed; the movable assembly 30 is arranged on the support frame 10, and the movable assembly 30 includes a plurality of sleeve rods 31 movably arranged toward the plurality of parts 1 to be ringed, and inner core rods 32 are movably penetrated in the plurality of sleeve rods 31, and the inner core rods 32 have a mating portion 320 which is matingly connected with the part 1 to be ringed at one end facing the part 1 to be ringed; wherein, each inner core rod 32 is used for sleeved with a welding ring 2, so that when the plurality of sleeve rods 31 respectively move toward the plurality of parts 1 to be ringed until the mating portion 320 is penetrated in the part 1 to be ringed, the sleeve rod 31 pushes the welding ring 2 until it is sleeved on the part 1 to be ringed.

[0031] By applying the technical solution of the present invention, the positioning assembly 20 ensures the position accuracy and stability of multiple parts 1 to be sleeved during the sleeve process, avoiding inaccurate sleeve connection of the welding ring 2 due to position offset. And by controlling multiple sleeve rods 31 to drive the inner core rods 32 thereon to move toward multiple parts 1 to be sleeved, so that after the matching portion 320 of the inner core rod 32 is matched and connected with the part 1 to be sleeved, the sleeve rod 31 pushes the welding ring 2 sleeved on the inner core rod 32 to move to the part 1 to be sleeved, thereby completing the sleeve connection of the welding ring 2 of multiple parts 1 to be sleeved at the same time. It can be seen that through semi-automatic or automated means, the efficiency and accuracy of the sleeve of the small elbow is achieved, thereby solving the problem of low work efficiency of manual sleeve connection of the small elbow in the prior art. It can not only significantly improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs, but also ensure the consistency of product quality. Especially in the field of air-conditioning pipeline manufacturing, which has extremely high requirements for the precision of connecting parts, the application of this equipment has significant economic value and broad market prospects. It significantly improves the product qualification rate, reduces the defective rate, and reduces the subsequent testing and rework costs.

[0032] In this embodiment, the part 1 to be collared is a small elbow.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the movable component 30 also includes a movable plate 33, which is movably arranged on the support frame 10, and is respectively provided with a first connecting block 34 and a second connecting block 35 which are connected to each other, and the second connecting block 35 is located on the side of the first connecting block 34 away from the positioning component 20; wherein, parts of multiple sleeve rods 31 are respectively and spaced apart in the first connecting block 34, and one end of each inner core rod 32 away from the matching portion 320 is respectively connected to the second connecting block 35 through a first elastic member.

[0034] In this way, after the movable plate 33 drives the multiple sleeve rods 31 to move toward the multiple parts 1 to be put on the ring until the matching portion 320 of the inner core rod 32 is inserted into the part 1 to be put on the ring, under the further movement of the movable plate 33, the sleeve rod 31 will push the welding ring 2 put on the inner core rod 32, so that the welding ring 2 moves to be put on the part 1 to be put on the ring, and then the ring operation of the part 1 to be put on the ring is completed. In the above-mentioned setting, the first elastic member is a spring, and the second elastic member 27 is set, so that the inner core rod 32 can automatically reset after the ring is completed, without manual intervention, simplifying the operation process, improving the convenience and safety of the operation, and also improving the continuous operation ability of the equipment. In addition, the first connecting block 34 and the second connecting block 35 ensure the synchronization and stability of each sleeve rod 31 and the inner core rod 32 therein during the movement process, avoiding the deviation or jitter of the welding ring 2 during the sleeve connection process, and significantly improving the sleeve connection accuracy of the welding ring 2.

[0035] Specifically, the movable assembly 30 also includes two guide rail seats 36 and two sliders 37; the two guide rail seats 36 extend in the direction toward the multiple parts 1 to be put on the ring and are relatively arranged on the support frame 10; the two sliders 37 are respectively arranged at the bottom of the movable plate 33 and are correspondingly connected with the two guide rail seats 36, so that the movable plate 33 can be movably arranged in the direction toward the multiple parts 1 to be put on the ring. Through the above arrangement, the two guide rail seats 36 extend in the direction toward the parts 1 to be put on the ring, providing a stable guide and support for the movable plate 33, making the movable plate 33 more stable during the movement, reducing the shaking or deviation during the movement, and ensuring the stability of the operation of the entire device. At the same time, the position accuracy of the movable plate 33 during movement is ensured, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the sleeve rod 31 and the inner core rod 32 to align with the parts 1 to be put on the ring, improving the accuracy of the sleeve connection of the welding ring 2, thereby ensuring the sealing and connection strength of the connecting parts such as the small elbow.

[0036] Specifically, the movable assembly 30 also includes a first driving component 38, which is arranged on the support frame 10, and a third connecting block 39 is arranged on the movable plate 33. The driving end of the first driving component 38 is connected to the third connecting block 39, so as to drive the movable plate 33 to drive the multiple sleeve rods 31 to move toward the multiple parts 1 to be sleeved. In the above configuration, the first driving component 38 is a cylinder, etc., so that a stable and accurate driving force can be provided to ensure that the movable plate 33 and the sleeve rod 31 can accurately move to the position of the part 1 to be sleeved, improve the accuracy of the sleeve connection of the welding ring 2, and thus ensure the quality and performance of the connecting parts such as the small elbow. In addition, through the coordinated use of the first driving component 38 and the third connecting block 39, not only the automation and precision level of the sleeve process are greatly improved, but also the structural design of the overall device is optimized, the maintenance cost is reduced, and the operation safety and production efficiency are improved.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the positioning assembly 20 includes a mounting seat 21 and a clamping plate 22; the mounting seat 21 is arranged on the support frame 10, and a plurality of first arc grooves 210 are respectively provided on the mounting seat 21, and a plurality of parts 1 to be ringed are respectively arranged in the plurality of first arc grooves 210; the clamping plate 22 is movably arranged in a direction toward the mounting seat 21, and a plurality of second arc grooves 220 are respectively provided on the clamping plate 22 corresponding to the plurality of first arc grooves 210, so that when the clamping plate 22 moves toward the mounting seat 21 until it contacts the mounting seat 21, the groove walls of the first arc grooves 210 and the second arc grooves 220 respectively abut against the outer peripheral wall of the part 1 to be ringed to position the part 1 to be ringed.

[0038] Through the above arrangement, under the coordinated use of the mounting seat 21 and the clamping plate 22, the groove walls of the first arc groove 210 and the second arc groove 220 are respectively abutted against the outer peripheral wall of the part to be sleeved 1, which can accurately fix the position of the part to be sleeved 1, ensure that the welding ring 2 is sleeved in the correct position, improve the sleeve accuracy of the welding ring 2, and ensure the sealing and connection strength of the connecting parts such as the small elbow. At the same time, by designing an arc groove that is compatible with the structure of the part to be sleeved 1, the direct extrusion of the part to be sleeved 1 is reduced, the damage or deformation of the parts caused by excessive clamping is avoided, the integrity of the part to be sleeved 1 is protected, and the qualified rate of the product is improved. In addition, by designing arc grooves of different sizes, the positioning component 20 can adapt to the parts to be sleeved 1 of different specifications, increase the flexibility and application range of the equipment, and reduce the frequency of adjusting the equipment due to changing the specifications of the parts.

[0039] Specifically, the positioning assembly 20 also includes a mounting plate 23 and a second driving component 24; the mounting plate 23 is connected to the mounting seat 21; the second driving component 24 is arranged on the mounting plate 23, and the driving end of the second driving component 24 passes through the mounting plate 23 and is connected to the clamping plate 22 to drive the clamping plate 22 to move toward the mounting seat 21 to clamp the part to be collared 1. In the above arrangement, the second driving component 24 is a cylinder, etc., so that the movement of the clamping plate 22 can be automatically controlled to achieve rapid clamping and release of the part to be collared 1, thereby improving the degree of automation of the collaring process, reducing manual intervention, and speeding up the production rhythm. At the same time, the design of the mounting plate 23 not only provides an installation position for the second driving component 24, but also optimizes the spatial layout of the positioning assembly 20, making the entire equipment more compact, saving production space, and improving space utilization efficiency.

[0040] like Figure 5As shown, the positioning assembly 20 also includes a connecting member 25 and a plurality of second elastic members 27; the connecting member 25 is movably connected to the mounting seat 21, and a plurality of push rods 26 are arranged at intervals on the connecting member 25, and the plurality of push rods 26 are respectively arranged in the plurality of first arc-shaped grooves 210, so as to push out the ring-forming parts 1 in the first arc-shaped grooves 210; the plurality of second elastic members 27 are respectively sleeved on the plurality of push rods 26 in a one-to-one correspondence, one end of the second elastic member 27 is connected to the connecting member 25, and the other end of the second elastic member 27 is respectively used to contact the clamping plate 22 and the mounting seat 21. In this way, when the second driving member 24 controls the clamping plate 22 to release the ring-forming parts 1, the plurality of push rods 26 automatically push the ring-forming parts 1 out of the first arc-shaped grooves 210 under the drive of the connecting member 25, thereby reducing the need for manual material removal operations and improving the automation level and production efficiency. In the above-mentioned configuration, the second elastic member 27 is a spring. Through the configuration of the second elastic member 27, resistance is provided to the movement of the connecting member 25 toward the mounting seat 21, thereby reducing the hard contact between the connecting member 25 and the mounting seat 21, reducing the wear of mechanical parts, and reducing the vibration of the push rod 26 during movement, thereby extending the service life of the overall device and reducing maintenance costs.

[0041] Specifically, the positioning assembly 20 also includes two connecting rods 28 and a third driving component 29; one end of the two connecting rods 28 is respectively connected to the connecting member 25, and two connecting grooves are respectively provided on the mounting seat 21, and the other ends of the two connecting rods 28 can be movably extended into the two connecting grooves respectively; the third driving component 29 is arranged on the support frame 10, and the driving end of the third driving component 29 is connected to the connecting member 25 to drive the connecting member 25 to drive the multiple push rods 26 to move.

[0042] Through the above arrangement, the two connecting rods 28 cooperate with the connecting member 25 and the connecting groove on the mounting seat 21 to form a stable motion guide, ensuring the linear motion of the connecting member 25 during the pushing process, avoiding deviation or shaking, and improving the stability and accuracy of the push rod 26 during the movement process. At the same time, the guiding effect of the connecting rod 28 reduces the friction and mechanical wear of the connecting member 25 during the movement process, prolongs the service life of the equipment, and reduces the maintenance cost. In the above arrangement, the third driving component 29 is a cylinder, etc., so that the movement of the connecting member 25 can be accurately controlled, and then the pushing force of multiple push rods 26 on multiple parts 1 to be ringed after the ring is completed can be controlled, ensuring that the parts are safely and stably pushed out from the first arc groove 210, avoiding damage to the parts or poor pushing out caused by excessive or too small pushing force. The pushing and resetting process does not require manual intervention, and is fully automated, which improves production efficiency and reduces labor costs.

[0043] In this embodiment, a collecting groove 11 is provided on the support frame 10 between the positioning assembly 20 and the movable assembly 30, for collecting the completed collared parts 1 pushed out by the push rod 26. In this way, the collecting groove 11 can receive a plurality of completed collared parts 1 that fall under the push of the plurality of push rods 26, thereby realizing the automatic collection of the completed collared parts, reducing the need for manual operation, improving the level of automation, speeding up the production rhythm, and thus improving the efficiency of the overall production line.

[0044] In this embodiment, a first hopper 12 is disposed on the support frame 10 for accommodating a plurality of welding rings 2 .

[0045] In this embodiment, a second hopper 13 is provided on the support frame 10 for accommodating a plurality of components 1 to be ringed.

[0046] In the present application, during the specific implementation, the operator places the plurality of small elbows into the first arc groove 210 on the mounting seat 21, and sleeves the plurality of welding rings 2 on the plurality of inner core rods 32, and then starts the device, and the second driving component 24 pushes the clamping plate 22 to move to abut against the mounting seat 21 to clamp the small elbows; and then controls the first driving component 38 to push the movable plate 33 to move toward the mounting seat 21, so that the movable plate 33 drives the plurality of sleeve rods 31 thereon to move toward the plurality of small elbows, so as to clamp the inner core rods 32. After the matching portion 320 of 2 is inserted into the small elbow, the sleeve rod 31 pushes the welding ring 2 on the inner core rod 32 onto the small elbow, thereby completing the sleeve ring docking; after the sleeve ring is completed, the first driving component 38 is pulled back to its original position, and the second driving component 24 pulls up the clamping plate 22 to release the small elbow; then the third zone component is controlled to push the small elbow that has completed the sleeve ring and is located in the first arc groove 210 to fall into the collection groove 11 for collection, and finally the third driving component 29 is pulled back to its original position, the action is completed, and then the above action is repeated to start.

In this way, the positioning assembly 20 ensures the position accuracy and stability of the plurality of components 1 to be collared during the collaring process, and avoids inaccurate sleeve connection of the welding ring 2 due to position offset. And by controlling multiple sleeve rods 31 to drive the inner core rods 32 thereon to move toward multiple parts 1 to be sleeved, so that after the matching portion 320 of the inner core rod 32 is matched and connected with the part 1 to be sleeved, the sleeve rod 31 pushes the welding ring 2 sleeved on the inner core rod 32 to move to the part 1 to be sleeved, thereby completing the sleeve connection of the welding ring 2 on multiple parts 1 to be sleeved at the same time. It can be seen that through semi-automatic or automated means, the efficiency and accuracy of the small elbow sleeve is achieved, thereby solving the problem of low efficiency of manual sleeve of small elbows in the prior art.
